Title: "Continue Reading" keeps repeating Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # "Continue Reading" keeps repeating * [shawnkhu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnkhu/) * (@shawnkhu) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/) * Hi all, * The “Continue Reading” link keeps repeating. Is there any way I can stop this? * Here’s the link: [http://www.shawnhulaw.com/blog/feed/](http://www.shawnhulaw.com/blog/feed/) * Thanks for any advice!

If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s). * – switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems. * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F) by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems. * Thread Starter [shawnkhu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnkhu/) * (@shawnkhu) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077308) * Hi Esmi, * I tried all three recommendations to no avail. First, I deactivated all my plugins. Then I switched to a couple different themes. Finally, I reset the plugins folder by FTP. * Thanks for your help. Do you know anything else I can do? It’s really annoying me. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077324) * That looks like a plugin issue to me. Have you amended any of the files in Twenty Ten or any of the the WordPress core files? * Thread Starter [shawnkhu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnkhu/) * (@shawnkhu) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077328) * Thanks for replying Esmi. I really appreciate it. * I don’t think I amended any of the files, but I did edit the footer. Is there a way I can fix that issue? I have a feeling that’s the cause. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077341) * Try re-uploading a fresh copy of the Twenty Ten theme. * Thread Starter [shawnkhu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnkhu/) * (@shawnkhu) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077418) * No dice, Esmi. * I’m thinking of just deleting the blog, re-installing it and manually uploading the articles again. I only have 11, but it’s going to take some time. What do you think? * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077419) * Try re-uploading all files & folders – **except** the wp-content folder – from a **fresh** download of WordPress. * Thread Starter [shawnkhu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnkhu/) * (@shawnkhu) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077420) * Esmi, * I re-uploaded all the files except wp-content and re-uploaded the old wp-content folder to the blog directoy… but it’s still brand spanking new. Is there a way I can get my posts to show up like the old days? * Thread Starter [shawnkhu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnkhu/) * (@shawnkhu) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077421) * Sigh, for anyone with this problem… wish I knew about exporter before I uninstalled. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077422) * Why did you replace the wp-content folder? Did you empty the database and re- run the install? Or did you re-install to a fresh database? * Thread Starter [shawnkhu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnkhu/) * (@shawnkhu) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077423) * I think I screwed the pooch. * I copied my wp-content folder and then uninstalled WordPress. Then I reinstalled it and pasted the “old” wp-content folder and replaced it with the newly installed one. * I’m going to be sitting here for the next hour reposting everything. Maybe there’s some hope? * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077424) * But did you empty your database? If you try to re-install WP into an existing database with populated tables using the same table prefix, it refuses with a warning that it is already installed. * Thread Starter [shawnkhu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnkhu/) * (@shawnkhu) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077425) * Yup, I got the warning and chose to overwrite the existing database. It’s not so bad… I’m already a couple posts in. I just wish I didn’t lose all my comments and timestamps for the posts. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-keeps-repeating/#post-2077426) * Don’t suppose you have a recent database backup, do you? Have you asked your hosts if they have a backup?
